by Akshaya Patra NGO in India - Akshaya PatraThe
mid-day meals act as an incentive for parents to send their children to school
and it adds hope in lakhs of children that their ambitions and dreams are
achievable. As an NGO in Assam,
this is how Akshaya Patra upkeeps the right to nutrition and education:
“Mid-day meals are very important. The mid-day meal served in the school is a relief for the family. At home, it’s mostly rice, dal or pitha (a type of local bread made of rice flour). Vegetables or lentils are not on the family’s menu every day. I enjoy my school lunch especially on Wednesdays and Saturdays when we get kheer, khichdi, and vegetable pulao - a delicacy which is rarely cooked at home.” Mrinmay Malakar.
Parvati hails from a challenging background and has the complete support of her mother with regards to her education. She aspires to be a Police Officer. Parvati’s mother opines that education will help her daughter succeed in life and also aid in leading a better life than the current one. The fact that Parvati gets mid-day meal at school comes by as a great relief for the mother.

P. Narsimha Raju says, “If I concentrate on one particular sport, I will excel in that sport only. But, if I concentrate on different sports and education, it will help me become a teacher and produce good sportsmen for our school and the country.”
